Magda saw Roskilde from behind the scenes and discovered there's more to our beloved festival than the usual rumpus.

NORWEGIAN WOOD 2010

Norwegian Wood festival recides in Oslo's biggest outdoor public bath, in the middle of Oslo's posh area. Thankfully there is nothing posh about the festival. This year you find metal giants Mastodon among the headliners together with Norwegian sing-a-long rock bands Raga Rockers and Dumdum Boys. Norwegian Wood is also known for bringing some legendary acts and this year your parents will be rocking to Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) and Roger Hodgson (Supertramp).

METALTOWN 2010

Metaltown in Gothenburg has already an impressive line-up this year. To mention some: Rammstein, In Flames, Coheed & Cambria, Garcia plays Kyuss, Kreator, Nile, Hatebreed, Brian "Head" Welch and Between The Buried And Me.

The metal festival can easily be combined with punk festival West Coast Riot the day before and Pier Pressure (emo, pop and rock) on the day after.

CATGIRL'S CONCERT LIST

Ever since being a little kid I've been going to concerts. My first festival experience was the Horten Festival in '81 I think. Back then Roskilde and Horten festival were closely connected and in 1978 they shared artists like Bob Marley and the Wailers.

By 2009 I've been to Roskilde 13 times, and seen a lot of bands both there and other places.
